The KnightsCast crew returns with something a little different: 

Cadia has fallen. The Cicatrix Maledictum has torn the Imperium asunder. The son of the God Emperor has risen from the dead. The Imperium stands on a knife’s edge between survival and complete annihilation.

And Inquisitor Adar is on the hunt.

Join Murtle (Alex), Oswin (Ben), Alric (Aaron), Gerard (Emmanuel), and your Game Master (Will) as we delve into a game of Dark Heresy 2nd Edition.  

Disclaimer: We were experimenting with a new microphone setup in our new studio. Unfortunately we ran into a few technical issues in the recording process so some parts may get a little quiet. Thankfully we think we have found the right gremlins to purge and things should be better going forward!
